As part of a recent Halo Infinite question and answer session with Quinn DelHoyo of 343 Industries, who works on the Sandbox team at the developer, DelHoyo explained how the developer intends to add new weapons and features and generally update the video game after launch. Although it doesn’t come out right away and says “don’t expect Halo 7 to be released soon”, he explicitly states that the developer does not intend to launch Halo Infinite and move on to the next thing.
“Something we’re really excited about is that this isn’t just a Halo game that we’re going to release and then finish and move on to the next Halo title,” DelHoyo said as part of a larger 14-minute response in the video about the role. Halo InfiniteThe Bulldog rifle and how other weapons fit into it, “but we’ll always watch as we continue to update this game.”

The idea that Halo Infinite will receive more continuous updates after release is not exactly shocking. Increasingly, video games – especially those with multiplayer elements – have seen a shift to something like a live service platform, rather than a fully encapsulated version. Halo Infinite popular games at launch can be significantly different from those you play a year later. This also fuels longer periods when a new tranche of a video game franchise is not launched. Look, for example, at the continuing relevance of Grand Theft Auto V and GTA Online.
Halo Infinite It is currently being released later this year for Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S and PC. Xbox Series X | S are currently available for $ 399 and $ 299, respectively, if you can find any of them in stock anywhere.
